JudComm
**detailed information to be sent soon by David and Jacqueline**
Three types of cases we might hear:
1. Appeals heard because (a) new evidence found since ruling, (b) procedural
guidelines not followed, or (c) sanctions not appropriate.
2. Cases against an entire building or an organization, e.g. against
a student group who committed postering violations, or against an FSILG who
committed vandalism.
3. Cases in which the dorm in which the infraction was committed does
not have an operating JudComm. If not heard by DormCon, these cases would
be heard by a dean’s panel.
General consensus was that type 1 should be heard by us, type 2 cases need
more details before we can hear these, and type 3 probably should not be heard
by us.
Punishments our JudComm could recommend: expulsion from a dorm or the entire
dorm system, community service, fines, or counseling or educational programs.
We CANNOT hear cases of 2nd time offenders
Questions of who should comprise the hearing panels have not been fully answered.
